I must commend Billy Packer and CBS. They don't care that 80% of the audience can't stand him. The majority who feel that way are fools. Why...they're just unable to appreciate his vast array of excellence. Including his wide vocabulary. No one uses the words "Can't...shouldn't...should have...not a good decision" better than Billy Packer. He's so quick to point out what someone has done wrong, that it's hard to imagine him using any other words than those listed above.
I always sit on the edge of my seat when Billy is calling a game...waiting for his exultations of infinite wisdom. Why, just the other night, the Kansas/North Carolina game is a perfect example. With 7:30 left in the first half, Packer proudly proclaimed the game over with Kansas far ahead. I took this cue, turned off the game and went to work out. What to my horror, I discovered, when Carolina cut it to 4 in the 2nd half. But Billy was right. Kansas pulled away, safely securing the win. What a call. The teams should have just stopped playing when he came to that decision in the first half.

Yes, Billy Packer. What a great announcer. Kudos to him and CBS for doing what they can to irritate fans during what normally is the happiest sports weekend of the year. Billy, never have I been more excited for a sporting event, only to become so frustrated when watching it. Now, that's some incredible talent you're wielding. And it's noble work you're doing. Keep it up.
